Tag Archives: Stephen Baldwin

By now, most of you know that Stephen Baldwin is the favorite brother out of the four-actor brood for us right-wing extremists, formerly known as Christians with conservative thought.

No, it’s not because Sarah Palin told us so. It’s just that Stevie-B shows us how to have more fun than us Jesus freaks ought to be allowed… (more)

Baldwin tackles issues like pot legalization, abortion, Nancy Pelosi…and how to make a “Chocolate Elvis” (video). He’ll also be one of the contestants on NBC’s “Im a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!” premiering June 1.

What other conclusion can be drawn from one of today’s CBS News online headlines? What other connection can we make from the opinion piece that leads with: “Marijuana should never have been made illegal in the first place.”

Should we just give the news giant a pass for publishing a column that advocates weed so strongly?

Now, I know it’s politically correct to include pro-pothead opinion in normal discourse. To openly talk about the legalization of the hippie lettuce is cool…and everything. Heck, what’s wrong with a little medicinal spleef? Right?

I don’t like to name-call, even if we are simply talking about the weed people, but let’s call our Mary Jane for what it really is…I mean, like they said in the nearly half-century old commerical, “Why do you think they call it dope?”

Now, you CBS editors who see nothing wrong with partaking in the bud, where are your journalistic skills and integrity? Lost in a haze of smoke and scattered potato chips?

You could have made it look as though you were simply throwing a bone to the weed people, instead you gave them a fatty headline…btw, did you see your URL tab tag? “Make Marijuana Legal – CBS News.”
